I am a new proud mama to a 4mos old 12" Beardie. I have done a lot of research online, but am not sure about one thing....I have read over and over not to feed a Beardie anything bigger than the space between their eyes. I wanted to give her some variety in her diet. A man at a local reptile store said it was ok to give her these large silkworms (1 1/2 - 2 inches)because they are soft-shelled. He fed one to a small gecko to show me, but I am not convinced that it is ok. I have read that silkworms are ok, but I have not read anything mentioning what size compared to the size of your dragon. Maybe I am over reacting, but I would rather be over cautious than have a dead little girl on my hands !!! Any input would be greatly appreciated by me and my little girl !!! thanks
